There's a pair on the international ebay mate.

Cheers :daumenhoch:

theres a pay on ebay uk aswell :daumenhoch: £30 posted

Be warned - don't ride them seriously as they look great but are shit for actual grip.
If you want to actually ride your bike on a ramp use a new-school gumwall like Chaz & Daves or some of the others that I've clean forgotten the name of!
Ooops... Some other Rad members will step in with options but not Barefeet on a park rider believe me!
(I fractured my skull in 6 places on a set of them once!)

Thanks for all the advice folks :daumenhoch: it's all very much appreciated...
The bike will be ridden, so listening to the experiences of you guys, then maybe the oddy's aint the way to go ! (they do look cool as phuq though) ;D
Cheers for the offers too, but after reading a bit about them, I have decided not to get a set, but will probably go instead for a set of xposure daves ftw

Andy, you rode it with the fat fookas on it at MK bud - I need all the rubber contact I can get as I'm still scared every time I drop in mate! The Dave tyre is a 2" wide and the Chaz is a 2.125" I think. Might be 1.95" Dave on the back but I know it's close to my rear frame stays if you look at this pic, hence the gay but required chain tensioners on both sides of the wheel :shocked:

mate, it rode nice but just a bit sluggish to me due to the tyres, needed 1.75s to make it perfect for me :daumenhoch:
-
Those barefeet things should all be burnt! fooking death traps for riding on.
Thos exposure tyres are great value, also the Oddy or FIT ones are great if you want to go a bit lighter :daumenhoch:
